Wowza!! I’m so glad that I booked a private guide and toured these two wonderful sites off season. My guide was Michele. He was awesome and made the visit spectacular. We spent around five hours together exploring both sites and I really appreciated Michele’s thoroughness and knowledge of the subject matter. So happy to have gone with a guide vs try to figure it all out on my own.
We loved our private tour with Giulia. She was very knowledgeable, and engaging, and we loved her sense of humor. We learned so much more than what we would have learned if we had just toured Pompeii and the Herculaneum on our own. We also appreciated the clear and timely communication from the company and Giulia.
